Basically my favorite automotive era and thanks to David's 1938 Buick starter post I started looking at my displays to find some and I did. So here are pics of a few, plus an outlier or two.
Re did this one a bit
1934 Dash
Note the red circular medallion where I attempted to scratch the Buick script into the paint while it was still wet.
Red 1937 and two 1936's
1937's dash
But Wait, one more, not a Buick, it's a 1936 Pierce Arrow
And another, which must be the secret as to why I love this era of motorcars. Which is wife Bev and our 1935 Chevy Tudor Master Town Sedan which has traveled most of Rt 66 in three tries and many adventures. Just one state left - Illinois - and onto the end/starting place in Chicago
Models = Miracles in miniature = Holding History in ones hand
Cheers and Happy Collecting,

Nice, all of them ! Buicks are terrific cars either in model or real form. I still have a 1996 Roadmaster and it still runs great. In July, there is a "Route 66" car show in Berwyn, Illinois and many cars are shown up and down Ogden Avenue (Route 66) in that town on a certain day in which the highway there is blocked off.

Here's another '37 Buick from Brooklin (along with a Chevy of the same vintage) that I don't think anyone's posted a picture of yet:

...and two more '34 Buicks: a sedan by John Roberts (I only contributed the red interior) and a phaeton with repainted top and spare tire covers and some BMF added
